When installing a new system (etch), is there any trick I need to know for
getting my home directory right? I have the one from old system backed up.
When I go to restore it on the new system, I assume the installer will have
put some kind of home directory on the new system under my username. I want
to make sure that in the merged version of my home directory I have
everything I need from both the backup home directory and the home directory
created by the installer. For starters, do I need to copy in the backup home
directory right after I do the base install, or after I have downloaded
additional packages?
Thanks,

The simplest solution is to start with a new drive. Unplug and remove your
current drive if it contains anything valuable, put it in a safe place. As the
saying goes, when you're stuck in the hole, stop digging.
